I made my own DOS implementation (Announce)

Hi,
first of all I wanted to inform you that my posts were not meant to critizise you. This was simply a first test. I like testing new programs. There are often problems if I test a program / OS for the first time.
I just ran a second test with your latest version now. As I may have overlooked your email address on your website, I uploaded 35 zipped pictures on my website:

www.bootablecd.de/ST-DOS.7z

I hope you can see that ST-DOS sometimes behaves a little strange, e.g. it names the HD with 2 GB size "A" under special circumstances. The setup program says that it is possible to run format before installation. There is even a question if it was already formatted or not.
The most less helpful thing for me was the "GUI" (sorry for Win3).
I used in about the same background colour with the FreeDOS fish for my version 1.1.0 of the english online help and got a VERY LOUD cry: "With this colour the text is unreadable." I still cannot reproduce it on my website, but, sorry for that, with your GUI it is reproducable. For test purposes it would be very helpful to change the background from your "blue" (maybe you call it another colour) to white or something else. The marker for the actual "mouse position" (Meaning: which symbol is marked at the moment?) is invisible for me around most symbols, see pictures.
"vi": Maybe I used the wrong program.
At one picture I added the text Alt-c etc. Sorry, this was wrong.

Hope the pictures help you to understand what I talk about.

Fritz
